Dog Snuggles With Stuffed Animals To Cope With Losing Her Puppies

It's been a sad week for this pup named Twinkle - but her new family is helping her through it.

Twinkle was rescued two months ago by Xavier Hernandez and his mother, who live in California. She had been found living in poor conditions during a recent trip to Mexico, so Xavier's mom decided to take her home to be a part of their family.

It's worth noting that dogs who have recently had a failed pregnancy can help turn that tragedy into something positive - by being a foster mom to puppies who have lost their parent. If you have a dog who is in a situation like Twinkle's, consider contacting a local animal rescue group to see if there are any newborn pups in need of a mom.
